㈣ 人教版英语必修四知识点归纳详解,比如todo,doing的用法区别(好的追加分)
to,作为介词,在英语里最原始的意义是指从一处到另一处,因此在现代英语中引申出来就是指将要做what what,所以to do是一种表“将要”的不定式结构,而doing可以看成是动名词,ing-分词(也是一中不定式),表习惯性,经常性的动作或是正在做what what 所以和这两种不定式搭配的短语意思,只要根据前面动词的意思就可以明白了^_^
一般情况下,to do 是一般将来式,是打算去做什么 ;doing 是现在进行式,是现在正在做什么,也有例外,具体情况具体分析。
下面是有关该问题的习题讲解,希望有所帮助。

㈥ 英语必修四第二单元课文翻译是什么
Despite being one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping still thinks of himself as a farmer because he works in the fields and concts scientific research.
尽管是中国最着名的科学家之一,袁隆平仍然认为自己是个农民,因为他在田里耕作,进行科学研究。
Indeed, like millions of other Chinese farmers, he has been trying to help them for the past 50 years with his sun tanned face and arms, and his thin and strong body.
的确,他被太阳晒得黝黑的脸庞和和手臂,以及他那瘦削而又结实的身躯,就跟其他千百万中国农民一样,过去50年来,他一直在努力帮助他们。
What Dr. yuan grows is called "Super Hybrid Rice". In 1974, he became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow high-yield rice. This special kind of rice makes the same field yield one third more. Now more than 60% of the rice proced in China every year comes from this hybrid rice.
袁博士种植的是被称为“超级杂交水稻的”的稻种。1974年,他成为世界上第一位种植高产水稻的农业先锋。这种特殊的稻种使得同样的田地多收获三分之一的产量。如今中国每年出产的稻米有60%以上出自这种杂交稻种。
Born in 1930, Dr. yuan graated from Southwest Agricultural University in 1953. Since then, finding a way to proce high yield rice has become his lifelong goal. When he was young, he saw a huge demand for increasing the yield of rice fields.
袁博士1930年出生,1953年毕业于西南农学院。从那时起,找到水稻高产的方法就成为他一生的目标。年轻时,他就看到了稻田增产的巨大需求。
At that time, famine was a serious problem faced by many rural areas. Dr yuan should seek ways to increase the income of rice on the basis of not increasing the land area.
当时,饥荒是许多农村地区面临的严重问题。袁博士要在不增加土地面积的基础上寻求达到增收稻谷的途径。
In 1950, Chinese farmers could only proce 50 million tons of rice, but recently they have proced nearly 200 million tons. This increase in food proction means that only 7% of China's arable land supports 22% of the world's population.
1950年,中国农民只能生产五千万吨稻谷,而近来却生产了将近两亿吨稻谷。这一粮食产量的增加意味着中国仅仅7%的耕地养活了世界22%的人口。
Dr. yuan is now spreading knowledge about rice proction in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries. Thanks to his research, the United Nations has more options in the fight against world hunger. With his hybrid rice seeds, farmers grow twice as much grain as before.
袁博士现在在印度、越南和很多其他欠发达国家传播提高水稻产量的知识。多亏了他的研究,联合国在消除世界饥饿的战斗中有了更多的办法。用他的杂交水稻种子,农民种出的粮食比以前多了一倍。
这部分内容主要考察的是现在完成时的知识点:
过去的动作或状态持续到现在,对现在造成的影响,可能持续发生下去。在英语时态中,“时”指动作发生的时间,“态”指动作的样子和状态。
完成时态的构成分为两部分:一是助动词,二是实义动词的过去分词-ed。具体来说,用助动词have/has表示“时”,以表明动作发生的时间是在过去、现在还是将来;用过去分词来表示动作的“态”,以表明该动作已经完成,而且对现在有一定的影响。
它的构成是:主语+助动词(have/has) +动词的过去分词。(done)

热点语法
主谓一致用法难点小结:
一、集合名词作主语时的主谓一致。
1. 集合名词有family, team, group, party, class, public, club, crew, crowd, enemy, audience, company, committee, government, population等,当被看作一个整体时,表示单数意义,谓语动词用单数形式;如果这些集合名词指其中的每个成员,表示复数意义,谓语动词则用复数形式。即谓语动词的单复数要与主语的含义相一致。如:
My class is a big one, including thirty boys and thirty girls.
My class are working hard for the coming exam.
2. 有些集合名词作主语时,谓语只能用复数形式,如:people, the police, the military, mankind, cattle等。如:
The police are searching for the lost child.
二、不定代词作主语时的主谓一致。
不定代词anyone, anybody, anything, everyone, everybody, everything, someone, somebody, no one, nobody, nothing, each, the other等作主语时,谓语动词用单数。如:
Everything goes well with me.
Each of the students in our class has an English-Chinese dictionary.
三、“名词+名词”作主语时的主谓一致。
当表示同一人物或观点时,谓语动词用单数。如:A novelist and playwright is coming to our school. 这里表示“一位小说家兼剧作家”,是同一个人,所以谓语动词用单数。
如果是A novelist and a playwright作主语,这时表示“一位小说家和一位剧作家”,是两个人,所以谓语动词用复数,该句应改为:A novelist and a playwright are coming to our school.
四、The + adj.作主语时的主谓一致。
当The + adj.表示抽象的含义时,谓语动词用单数。如:The beautiful is the true.
当The + adj.表示该类全体的含义时,谓语动词用复数。如:The rich should help the poor.
